FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The South Korean foreign ministry summoned the Japanese envoy to express Seoul’s “deepest regret” over Tokyo’s annual foreign policy report, which described the small islands as part of the Japanese territory.
“South Korea expresses deepest regret over Japan’s wrongful claim to jurisdiction over Dokdo, which is clearly the territory of the Republic of Korea, in its Diplomatic Blue Book 2012, released on April 6,” said South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman Cho Byung-jae.
The Korean official went on to add, “Any claim by Japan to Dokdo is meaningless, Japan should recognize this fact and stop reiterating such reckless claims.”
“As long as Japan makes territorial claims to Dokdo from a distorted view of history, their pledge to ‘build a future-oriented Korea-Japan partnership’ will be nothing but hollow words,” Cho added.
Relations between Tokyo and Seoul remain troubled by a dispute over the ownership of the tiny group of small islands called Dokdo in Korea and Takeshima in Japan.
While South Korea maintains that the islands are part of its territory, the Japanese government regards the islands as part of Okinoshima, Oki District, Shimane Prefecture.
The islets have been under Seoul’s control since the end of Japanese colonial rule after World War II.
The Dokdo Islands are said to contain large deposits of natural gas and oil.
